| Im sorry to post such a basic problem, but I have searched and searched without finding a solution.
Im trying to learn the basics of scripting in LUA but am facing an uphill battle fro the start as I cant seem to work out how to send commands through scripting :/
Ive tried several ways but all result in the same error
attempt to call global 'send' (a nil value)
I know this is saying that send isnt a recognised command but I dont know why??
with the trigger - "A hopping frog drifts *."
Ive tried :-
-
direction = %1
send(direction)
-
send %1
-
send "%1"
-
world.send %1
but none of them seem to work. Once I learn the basics, Im sure I can work the rest out but this is really stumping me. Thanks in advance for your help. | | Top |

| | For lua the correct syntax would be Send("%1"). | | Top |

| OK, I worked it out - and I must be an idiot - I didnt realise that I had to use a capital S for send!
Thanks | | Top |
